We really really need to stop emphasizing growth of individual instances.

It entirely defeats the point of federation.

Wait until it is twice as big. :)

That's interesting. I picked up memebership in both lemmy.ml and lemmy.world (same username) after trying Beehaw and finding that I was met with an endless circle of progress when submitting...

You bet, it is online 99% of 50% of the time.

That's more than my body is online

99.53% stable to be exact!

Yeah but a lot of those subscribers are probably bots.

This is not the win that you think it is...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Right? I'm still trying to figure it all out but I don't get what the benefit would be to having a username on a big instance. Seems like bragging rights would go to people who have their own instance.

But also the op didn't say it was a win... they just stated the fact. So there's that.
